About our toilet chip repair in Middleham
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Are you accredited?

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Middleham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Middleham use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Middleham
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Middleham. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
